Datang: Empress mother-in-law sent Li Er to test me

Page 215

"Since the founding of my country in the Tang Dynasty, there is still a lot of waste to be done, and there are so many disaster victims suddenly, how can I not feel pain?"

""Mencius" says: When Yu thinks that there are drowning people in the world, let him drown them; when Ji thinks that there are hungry people in the world, let him starve them!"

Li Er said in a cold voice: "The chief culprit who caused the man-made disaster in Hedong Road this time, Sun Xue, the supervisor of the censor, and Lu Zitao, the chief manager of Hedong Road, will be executed after autumn!"

"Ma Yuangui, chief executive, and Lu Zizang, chief clerk, are not good at handling things, and should be severely punished. However, during the period when I sent the three imperial envoys, they were able to do things pragmatically. In addition, the Hedong Road side cannot do without them, and their punishment will be postponed. .”

"When the Hedong Road is completely stabilized, Ma Yuangui will be removed from the post of chief executive, and Lu Zizang will be removed from the post of chief historian. As for how to arrange them, the Ministry of Officials will decide."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at all civil and military officials, and asked, "Who has any objection to what I said?"

All civil and military officials bowed to the end one after another, and said loudly, "Your Majesty is wise!"

Li Er hummed, "The three imperial envoys I sent to Hedong Road will be back soon."

"It's because of them that the people of Hedong Road didn't have trouble this time!"

"This court meeting is to discuss their merits!"

Li Er's tone paused, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Let's discuss now how to reward them."

Hearing this, all civil and military officials looked at each other.

In the end, all eyes were on Feng Deyi.

Feng Deyi, as the Duke of Secret Kingdom, was also a minister of the two dynasties, his words carried the most weight.

Feng Deyi thought for a while, raised his footsteps, walked out slowly, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Li Er looked at him and said with a smile, "Mr. Feng Mi, then you can talk first."

Feng Deyi straightened up and said solemnly: "As Your Majesty said, the imperial envoys sent to Hedong Road this time did their best work, which saved Hedong Road from man-made disasters."

"I think that Du Yan, the official censor, and Sun Wuji, the chief secretary of the Ministry of officials, should be greatly rewarded!"

"As for how to increase the reward, His Majesty can decide at his own discretion!"

After speaking, he bowed again and said.

The smile on Li Er's face suddenly froze.

Du Yan was mentioned, Changsun Wuji was mentioned, but Zhang Dun was not mentioned!

Li Er stared at him, and said: "Mr. Feng Mi, did you miss someone? There are three imperial envoys sent to Hedong Road. Why didn't you mention Zhang Dun?"

Feng Deyi lowered his head and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Majesty, among the three imperial envoys, Du Gong is the imperial historian, and Changsun Gong is the minister of the official department. Both of them are in the third rank. They wear purple robes and hang goldfish charms."

"As for Zhang Dun, he is not old enough to be crowned, and his official position is only the Shaoyin of Jingzhao Mansion."

"To put it bluntly, among the three imperial envoys who went to Hedong Road this time, Zhang Dun just obeyed orders."

Facing Li Er's stare, Feng Deyi did not change his face, and said calmly: "In the court, he obeys His Majesty, and he naturally obeys Du Gong and Changsun Gong outside, so I think he is not worth mentioning. "

Li Er narrowed his eyes and looked straight at him.

Holly opened his mouth.

In a few words, Zhang Dun's credit was almost wiped away!

If Zhang Dun wasn't sent by him, if he didn't know Zhang Dun's ability, if Du Yan and Changsun Wuji didn't report what Zhang Dun did in Hedong Road truthfully.

I'm afraid, Zhang Dun's first achievement is gone like this!

Li Er sneered, "Mr. Feng Mi, I remember that Zhang Dun caught your son and offended you, right?"

Feng Deyi shook his head, and said with a puzzled expression: "Your Majesty's words, I can't understand."

"Then I will say something you can understand!" Li Er stood up slowly, with his hands behind his back, and said coldly: "The reason why you don't discuss Zhang Dun's work is because he offended you and caught you Son, so you hold grudges in your heart and do this on purpose, don't you?"

Feng Deyi said righteously:

"Everything I say is just and fair, without any selfishness! Please be careful, Your Majesty!"

Li Er said lightly: "If it is fair, then it will be easy."

"According to the memorial submitted by Du Qing and Changsun Qing, what they did in Hedong Road this time was all done by Zhang Dun."

"I think Zhang Dun should take the lead."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at all civil and military officials, and said: "Today, I will clarify my words here."

"Today's court discussion is not about conferring Du Yan and Changsun Wuji, but about how to reward Zhang Dun! Dear friends, do you understand?!"

Civil and military officials were silent, Li Er didn't care, looked at Feng Deyi and continued:

"Mr. Feng Mi, if you say it is fair, then I would like to ask you, Zhang Dun has made the first contribution in the matter of Hedong Dao. If you want to reward him, how should you reward him?"

Feng Deyi frowned, he did not expect His Majesty to protect Zhang Dun so much.

After thinking for a long time, he bowed and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please make a decision."

Li Er didn't look at him again, but looked at the officials and asked, "You are also like Feng Migong, do you want Zhen Gangang to be arbitrary?"

Civil and military officials bowed one after another and said, "Your Majesty, please make a decision."

"Okay, then I'll just make my own decisions!"

Li Er snorted coldly and said, "I want to knight Zhang Dun!"

Hearing this, all civil and military officials suddenly raised their heads and looked at Li Er in shock.

Knighthood? !

How old is Zhang Dun, and he is going to be knighted?

"His Majesty--"

Feng Deyi was anxious, "Is it too much?"

Chapter 315 Let Zhen Gang be arbitrary?Then be knighted

Li Er stared at him and said: "Just now, it was you who said, let Zhen Gang be arbitrary."

"Now that I have made my own decision, you have said what I said?"

"Where have you been?"

"Is it because Zhang Dun has not been crowned yet because of his age? Or is his official position not worthy of being knighted?"

"Tell you, I use people to use their abilities!"

With a straight face, Li Er pointed to the direction outside the hall and said loudly: "If I let you go to that messy stall on Hedong Road, can you do it?"

"There are tens of thousands of disaster victims, if you go there as imperial envoys, how will you resettle them?"

"Look at how Zhang Dun did it!"

"Don't talk about the farewell place in Hedong, let's talk about Jinyang County, the governing place of Hedong Dao. The man-made disaster caused by Hedong Dao this time is because the local tyrants are doing mergers and wantonly selling the victims' land at a low price!"

"Zhang Dun went, not only properly resettled the victims, but also helped them redeem their fields!"

"Can you do it?"

"Can you think of a way to make paper for books? Or can you think of a way to make money from bamboo?"

"Or, after you have finished your work, when you come back from Hedong Road, will there be tens of thousands of disaster victims seeing you off?"

"You guys, can you do it?!"

Shocking and loud, resounding in the Tai Chi Hall.

The voice, like a dull hammer, hit the hearts of civil and military officials so hard that they lowered their heads even lower, unable to speak a word.

As Li Er said.

If it were them, it would be impossible!

Although they can calm down the disaster, they want tens of thousands of disaster victims on Hedong Road to see them off.

This is simply not possible.

Because, it has to be done in a way that wins the hearts of the people.

When they learned that tens of thousands of disaster victims on Hedong Road saw Zhang Dun off.

They just think they heard it wrong.

But when the county magistrates of Guannei Road rushed to Chang'an City one after another, they asked the court to transfer Zhang Dun to the counties and counties of Guannei Road for help.

Baiguan understood that what Zhang Dun did not only won the hearts of the people in Hedong Road.

It even conquered the county magistrates of Guannei Road!

However, Li Er's words made it extremely difficult for them to accept.

That's a knighthood!

If Zhang Dun is in the same place as the light in the court, then they are also happy to see this scene.

However, Zhang Dun is a little expert at causing trouble!

As the ten thousand year order, he poked such a big hole.

To collect debts according to the order is to offend all officials!

If he was knighted, wouldn't he have pierced Datang's sky?

Civil and military officials looked at Li Er, hesitant to speak.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"I think His Majesty's reward for Zhang Dun is extremely reasonable!"

At this moment, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui suddenly stood up and shouted at Li Erzuo.

Hearing this, Baiguan's gaze swiped, and he looked at the two of them sharply.

Feng Deyi frowned even more, staring straight at them.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui didn't hold back at all, their expressions were indifferent.

There was a smile on Li Er's face, this is my right arm.

A reward for Zhang Dun.

Others stopped it, only Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui would not.

Because they are with themselves.

More importantly, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui witnessed Zhang Dun's ability with him.

The treasury is empty, how to solve it?

Isn't it because of Zhang Dun? !

Li Er glanced over the faces of all the officials, and said lightly: "Then it's decided, how to confer the title, wait until Zhang Dun and the others return to Chang'an City, let's talk about it."

"Retreat!"

After speaking, Li Er turned around and left directly from the Tai Chi Hall.

"I will send you to Your Majesty."

Baiguan looked at his back helplessly and bowed to the end.

When Li Er completely disappeared from sight, the officials straightened up and began to discuss.

"Is it appropriate to confer a knighthood on a plush doll?"

"Whether it's suitable or not, His Majesty has already decided. What's the use of you and I talking about it?"

"Hey, how did Duke Du and grandson do it? How can Zhang Dun take the lead!"

All the officials gathered together and spoke angrily.

Feng Deyi's face was also ashen, and he stepped up to Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, stared at them and said:

"Fang Gong, Du Gong, why do you agree with His Majesty's title of Zhang Dun?"

All of a sudden, all civil and military officials looked at the two of them.
